I found this code online which is trying to include figure into latex but when i run this code this doesnot work(the figures doesnot appear) i dont understand where i should enter the name of figure, where i enter the path, or for this code i kept the figure in the same folder but no results.

First, you need to generate an ``eps'' (encapsulated postscript) file using
one of the tools available to you.
Then you can include it in a latex file.
To se how, examine the source file for this page.
This is an example of an inline figure, \INLINEFIG{Figure}, while
this is an example of the same figure centered in a space by itself:
\FIG{Figure}
You can scale the figure as you want:
for example, this is the same figure, just twice as large:
{\def\epsfsize#1#2{2.0#1}\FIG{Figure}}
or one fourth as large:
{\def\epsfsize#1#2{0.25#1}\FIG{Figure}}
In multipage documents, it is usually more appropriate to include pictures
only in the ``figure'' environment, as done in Fig.~\ref{FIG:myfig}.
\begin{figure}
\FIG{Figure.eps}
\caption{An example of floating figure.}
\label{FIG:myfig}
\end{figure}
\end{document}
any help is appreciated.
